Massage Therapy Courses
Massage therapy is one of the oldest forms of medicine, and helps people achieve and maintain healthy lifestyles through drug-free treatment and injury prevention. It’s also an opportunity to develop close relationships with the people you’re trying to help. With VFA Learning, you’ll learn how to become fully qualified within 12 months (full time).
VFA Learning has developed a blended option for this course, including online for theory components and completion of all practical observations either in a simulated work environment and placement as required by the qualification. Potential students are encouraged to speak with one of our highly experienced Course Consultants to discuss options that suit your learning needs.
